Word on the street
What locals are saying
The Commodore has been a fixture on Meeting Street since the early 1980s, when it opened as a jazz supper club called 'Touch of Class,' and the bones of that era — velvet, low light, an honest dance floor — are still very much intact. Live music runs Wednesday through Sunday, leaning jazz, funk, and soul with a Sunday honky-tonk curveball, and the bands reliably deliver; the bar service does not always follow suit. Drinks run strong and expensive, the room tops out around 100 at capacity (and it regularly hits capacity), and the 23-plus door policy gives the crowd just enough edge to stay interesting without tipping into chaos.
